This workshop aims at bringing together researchers from several institutions representing the state of the art in the field of seismic metamaterials to share and discuss their results with colleagues.
The complexity of the seismic problem combined with that of metamaterials require a multidisciplinary approach. The purpose is to invite speakers representing evenly the disciplines involved in the research, namely : Seismology, Civil and Mechanical Engineering, Mathematics and Physicists.

The focus of this 3rd workshop on seismic metamaterials. The first one was in Iasi, Moldova, 2015 and the second one in Dakar, Senegal, 2016 will be both on Earthquake induced seismic motion and on anthropic generated vibrations.
The 3rd workshop will take place at the School of Engineering and Architecture at University of Bologna, Italy.
